Options Trader: Friday Outlook - Too Little Too Late?

Phil-

I'm concerned about Google getting mashed even more through earnings.
I have 125 direct Google shares and I am seeking a hedge. Yes, I should have probably purchased a put option when I bought the shares months ago; the put options look pretty expensive now. Any suggestions or should I just hold and wait it out.
Thanks.
